How to get index of uiimage subview of uiscrollview - ios

Question

I need to detect selected image of uiimage which is placed inside scrollview.
My code is here:
int newscrollviewY = 40;
for(int i = 0; i<1; i++)
{
scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5, newscrollviewY, 310, 100)];
scrollView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = YES;
scrollView.scrollEnabled = YES;
scrollView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
scrollView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
scrollView.delegate=self;
int imgx = 1;
for(int img=0; img<[images count]; img++)
{
UIImageView *imageView1 = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(imgx,0,100,100)];
imageView1.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
imageView1.image = [images objectAtIndex:img];
imageView1.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
[imageView1 setNeedsDisplay];
[imageView1 setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
[imageView1 setMultipleTouchEnabled:YES];
[scrollView addSubview:imageView1];
imageButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
imageButton.frame = CGRectMake(imgx,0,100,100);
[imageButton addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonClicked) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
imageButton.tag = img;
[scrollView addSubview:imageButton];
imgx = imgx + 103;
}
Please help to detect selected image using imageButton or something else.

Answer 1

Replace your selector with buttonClicked:
be Sure that you are adding ":" after selector method. follow or replace the code below:
[imageButton addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
then Add the selector definantion in .m file
- (void) buttonClicked: (id) sender
{
// here you can get the tag of button.
NSInteger tag = ((UIButton *)sender).tag;
// do your implementation after this
}
Hope this will solve your issue. Enjoy Coding..!!

They way you have set it up the tag of the 'button' is already the number of the image in your array of images. So all you need to do is get the tag from the 'button'.
Make sure the button clicked function retrieves the tag from the sender(id) that you receive.
For example a bit like this:
- (IBAction)buttonClicked:(id)sender {
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
UIImage selectedImages = [images objectForKey: [button tag]];
}

As par you question if you are using UIImageview you have to use UITapGestureRecognizer that same like Button. you just need to add UITapGestureRecognizer like:-
for(int img=0; img<[images count]; img++)
{
UIImageView *imageView1 = [[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(imgx,0,100,100)];
imageView1.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
UITapGestureRecognizer *frameTapGesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(frameTapGesture:)];
frameTapGesture.numberOfTapsRequired=1;
imageView1.image = [images objectAtIndex:img];
imageView1.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
[imageView1 setNeedsDisplay];
[imageView1 setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
[imageView1 setMultipleTouchEnabled:YES];
imageView1.tag=img;
[_imgView addGestureRecognizer:frameTapGesture];
[scrollView addSubview:imageView1];
}.
- (void)frameTapGesture:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)sender
{
UIView *view = sender.view; //cast pointer to the derived class if needed
NSLog(#"%d", view.tag);
}
Reduce your code There are No need to add Button with same Frame of ImageView For getting Click Event or you can also set Image of UIButton for you want to like use UIBUtton then remove UIImageview Code else you simply use UITapGestureRecognizer with getting click event using - (void)frameTapGesture:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)sender

Please try this code
for(int img=0; img<[images count]; img++)
{
imageButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[imageButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:[images objectAtIndex:i]] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
imageButton.frame = CGRectMake(imgx,0,100,100);
[imageButton addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
imageButton.tag = img;
[scrollView addSubview:imageButton];
imgx = imgx + 103;
}
- (void) buttonClicked: (id) sender
{
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
UIImage selectedImage = button.currentImage;
}

Answer 5

set button target
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(buttonAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
// get Button Action
-(void) buttonAction:(UIButton *)sender
{
NSLog(#"%dl",sender.tag);
// do your implementation after this
}
